8800?

[Graeme43]

Hi!I just bought a Logitech G25 steering wheel so I can play GTR2 and TDU games with realistic gears

Heres the deal :
I play 1920x1200 and I like to play lots of games (who doesnt? ) and I like the highest settings I can play at so I was thinking of getting a 8800 GTS or GTX and have been trying to hold off but it is really hard and I want one so bad! I can get 1920x1200 on TDU at high detail without AA or HDR and a 8800 could probably get them ya can see the jaggies! I'll be getting Crysis when it comes out and I was wondering would a GTS be fine? The GTX is 100 quid dearer I'll end up buying one when crysis comes out if I don't get it now

Do you think my PSU would cope? I run a X1800XT just now which was rated at 100W power usage
Seasonic S12 silent 430W with E6600 @ 3.06GHz with 2GB 850mhz RAM + P5W-DH

Hi mate,

The GTX is better at high res with AA/AF, but the GTS is still very good aswell,
and both will play crysis but im not sure on how much AA/AF and at what res,

but if you got the GTX you will need a new PSU, not to sure with the GTS but i think you may need PSU for that to (but im not sure).

I think I'll get a 8800GTS 320MB when they come out if I can sell my X1800XT then it'll not cost me much and be happy with it until next year earliest

If you have the money get the GTX. If you wantto save money, clock a GTS and it will be very similar. There is not a large gap between the cards. I play oblivion, the system killing game at 1680x1050/max settings/HDR/16af/16aa and still swing 30-50fps outside an 100+ inside (at times).

On my GTS. The 8800's are godly.
